From what I understand (no formal training) the 'Periodic Table' is a list of the basic building blocks of everything around us or 'Elements'. Everything is comprised or made of one or more of these elements. For instance gold (on the 'P' table) cannot be broken down into anything else, or magnesium or carbon, which is one of the elements the human body is made of.
